‘We will retain our primary listing on the JSE and our issued share capital will be unaffected by the secondary listing,’ CEO Stephen Saad says
JSE-listed Aspen Pharmacare, whose market value has declined 35% since March 7, said on Monday its shares would start trading on SA’s A2X exchange from April.
“We will retain our primary listing on the JSE and our issued share capital will be unaffected by the secondary listing,” Saad said.Earlier in March, the global pharmaceutical company’s shares plunged as much as 51% to R68.99 in just two hours after Aspen said in an earnings report that borrowings, net of cash, had increased by R6.7bn to R53.5bn.Meanwhile, winning over Aspen is another step forward for A2X, which provides a platform for secondary listings.
